Redis Info

Remember to set following things for redis server:

1. Allow redis to open unlimited files: Immediately take effect (no reboot needed but not persisted) run command ulimit -s unlimited

Persist way: (reboot needed)

root soft nofile 500000
root hard nofile 500000
redis soft nofile 500000
redis hard nofile 500000

2. Set overcommit to be true

Immediately take effect (no reboot needed but not persisted)

sysctl vm.overcommit_memory=1

Persist way: (reboot needed)

edit /etc/sysctl.conf
vm.overcommit_memory=1

It will allows the vm to ask for more memory than it currently has (allocated by the host)

To Restart REDIS Server:

ssh into the machine

ssh tradeheroadmin@thvm-redis01.cloudapp.net

Check if the redis server is running (it should answer PONG)

redis-cli ping

To start the server if not running

sudo /etc/init.d/redis-server start

to check the logs

tail -n 200 /var/log/redis/redis-server.log
